Ethical Education of Environmental Policy
A Contracted Independent Organization (CIO) at the University of Virginia

Local Policy, Global Impact.

We believe that one of the most important parts of preventing further damage to the environment and climate destruction lies in the policy passed by the government (local, state, and federal). A lot of public policy gets lost behind buzzwords, which makes it even harder to stay up to date on local politics — but what happens in our own city really counts.

Policy in Action

Developers wanted to build in the Rivanna River’s floodplain. Engineers warned of floodwaters. The city almost let it happen — until people spoke up and stopped it. .

Who We Are

We are a team of University of Virginia students passionate about making environmental policy clear, unbiased, and accessible. With backgrounds in science and policy, we work to bridge the gap between complex legislation and the community it impacts.
